Palaeontological fiction is about lost worlds inhabited by dinosaurs and the distant ancestors of modern humans. These are exciting journeys through the abysses of time and encounters with antediluvian monsters that miraculously survived to our times. These are stories about primitive people and the life of creatures that turned into fossils millions of years ago... The anthology “The Great Beast Kafue” continues in the “Polaris” series a series of publications of forgotten paleontological fiction. The book includes works from the 1900s to the 1920s. Most of them have been translated into Russian for the first time. The publication preserves the original illustrations that form an integral part of the first publications.
